If you purchase a new phone, or need to factory reset your phone, you need to do some things first BEFORE destroying, resetting, selling your old phone.
- If you do not do this first, you are going to have problems accessing MYOB AccountRight & Xero files that use two factor authentication.
- Using your old phone BEFORE factory reset, you will need to login to MYOB as usual with the authentication number from that device. Then go to your account settings and remove 2-FA.
- Now set up 2-FA on the new device for MYOB AccountRight
- Do the same with Xero and remove 2-FA
- Now setup 2-FA on the new device for Xero
- Do this same process with any other services you use with 2-FA, for eg: Gmail
Below steps should help you, but if you need any assistance please contact our office.
